Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Editorial Fellow

Applications are invited from ASA, NZSA, or ANZICS members within their final year of specialty training or within two years of obtaining their specialist qualification for the position of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Editorial Fellow, 2018.

As with our current editorial positions, the position would be honorary and would be undertaken alongside the applicant’s usual employment or training.The term would be for the remainder of 2018, until the end of the current training year in January 2019 or, by arrangement, extended out to a full year.

The successful appointee would be exposed to both the production and editorial aspects of the journal, and would be involved in reviewing submissions, commissioning reviews, contributing to book and media reviews, and undertaking other journal activities, all under the supervision of current editorial and/or production staff.

The appointee would be encouraged to attend Editorial Board meetings and the Editors’ session at the annual ASA National Scientific Congress. It is anticipated that this activity would be eligible for CPD credits (to be negotiated with the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists). Applications will be judged on the basis of applicant’s demonstrated interest in research and medical publication.

Previous publications experience is desirable but not essential.

Applications should take the form of a one page covering letter indicating the reasons for wishing to undertake this activity, a current CV, and the names of two referees.

Applications should be addressed to the Chief Editor, Anaesthesia and Intensive Care via email aic@asa.org.au by 31 March 2018.

Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application by mid-April 2018.
